CHARLESTON'S DAYS EVENTS.

Happenings in South CarOlina'S Chief
Seaport City.
Charleston is working to make Gala Week
a permanent festival.
A sale of 100000 Confederate bills was
made at SOC. per s., 1000 in Charleston Fri
day.
1t is pretty we'll settled that Capt. Wag-
ener will not resign from the German
Artillery as Captain. His resignation was
offered to the company at their meeting
Wednesday night, but was received with
such a storm of remonstrance that the Cap
tain was taken aback. Lieut.. James
Simons, who also submitted his resignation
as Lieutenant, was elected honorary mem
Der, with privilege of voting upon company
questions, after the acceptance of his resig-
nation.
The Charleston recruiting station is still
a great attraction there Since the opening
of the station there have been about $50
bona fide applicants, thirty of whom have
been examined and six enlisted, all colored.
There were two or three white applicants.
but they were not of the right calibre and
were rejected without examination The
recruiting officer is making arrangements,
and will probably ship the first squad of re-
cruits to Atlanta this week. They are for
the cavalry, and will be sent to Atlanta,
whence they will be sent to st. Louis to the
camp of instruction.

LOOKING SERIOUS.
The Presence Of Ammonia
in the Ordained Food
Of Man.
Its Detection Publicly Claimed by the
Ohio State Food Commissioners.

1.-The Ohio State Dairy and Food Commits
sioner, Gen. S. II. Hurst, has made public
Circular No. O. the results of the Commits
sion's investigation Of baking powder. This
commission was formed by the Legislature.
with instructions to make an examination of
the food supply of the State, and to give a
report of such examination to the public.
The examination of the baking powders
was made by Prof. H. A. Weber, State
Chemist, and, relating as it does to an article
of daily use in the food of almost every
one, is of particular interest"
The startling fact is brought out by the
report that the "Royaln baking powder con-
talns carbonate of ammonia--a powerful
but unclean gas generating substance origin
ally derived from animal excrement. 1t is
but fair to say that the Commissioners
found DR.. Prices Cream Baking Powder
free from this poisonous drug, and that it is
recommended by Government Chemists, the
heads of the Great Universities and Public
Food Analysts as the purest, strongest and
most healthful, for general family use.
AS health is paramount to all other con-
siderations we would advise all housekeep-
ers, for the detection of concealed Ammonia
and other deleterious drugs as well as to de-
termine the purity Of any Baking Powder.
to make this simple test: Mix in tin cue a
heaping teaspoonful of the powder with two
teaspoonsfuls of cold water, place it over the
fire, stirring constantly and allow it to boil,
then smell. If adulterated, that unspeakable
odor proving the source of Ammonia will be
plainly detected. The presence of Ammonia
in most cases indicates that Alum is used, as
nearly all the Alum of commerce contains
ammonia. Pure Baking Powder will not
give the fainteSt Ammoniacal odor

ON RAIL AND CROSSTIE.
Local and General Gossip in Railway
Circles.

The Southern Pacific railroad has run a
branch into the rock-salt beds in the Colo
RADIO desert. Twelve thousand feet of the
track is ballasted with salt crystals, the
only feat of the kind in the world.
The winter schedule of the Charleston
and Savannah and Savannah, Florida and
Western railways went into effect yester-
day There are very few changes of any
note The West India fast mail, which left
here at 1926 p. m, will hereafter leave at
12:4S p. M, twenty two minutes later.
The Savannah, Florida and Western en-
gineer corps is comfortably fixed up in the
Watt building in Townsville, and is now
engaged in making typographical maps of
the line from the State line to Tallahassee
and Monticello. Capt Reynolds is assisted
in the important part of the work by Mr..
P. f. Jenkins and Mr.. C. S. Robert.
1t was hoped that Savannah would
have had quick communication with Middle
Florida before this, but unforeseen DELAYS
have prevented the commencement of the
work on the proposed railroad which is to
connect Thomasville with Monticello and
Tallahassee. 1t is expected, however, that
the work of construction will begin at a
very early day, and the road completed
some time during the coming year.

The Winter That's Coming.

There is an affinity between "coal" and
'cold" that is cemented by the friendly aid
of a warm overcoat, and as prudent persons
seldom neglect the "coal-bin" till the rigors
of frost are upon them, so does the wise
man provide the inevitable overcoat in time
We have given some study to the overcoat
question this season, and the result will. we
think, be creditable TO our taste and that of
the purchaser. From the Fancy Silk-lined
Coat for the ultra-fashionable man to the
substantial but modest garment for those of
milder ideas, we can equally please. besides
having numerous intermediate styles and
qualities to meet any taste or desire or price.
Added to this, we keep up our variety of
Gents, Youths and Boys Suits, Underwear.

Mrs. Cleveland's Diamonds.

The ladies have doubtless read much of
the handsome diamond necklace of Mrs.
Cleveland, and while we wouldn't for a
moment insinuate that any lady envies its
popular possessor, still many would take
pleasure In at least looking at it. A coun-
terpart Of this glorious string of gems, with
its lovely and dazzling pendant, can be in
spectid in the jewelry establishment of Mr..
M. Sternberg, 1877 Broughton street. who
will take pleasure in exhibiting its charms
to every lady who will honor him with a
visit. The necklace in question is to be
ratified, and in the interval it can be seen
and inspected as above. Besides the neck
lace, there are still many articles in Mr.
Sternberg's treasure house that are worthy
of a visit, and the proprietor and his atten-
tive statesmen will take especial pains to
show their immense stock of Jewelry, Dia-
monds, Silverware, Art Objects, Bronzes,
etc. There is 40 obligation to buy lohat-
ecer, and Mr. Sternberg will be equally
happy to show through those who do not
wish to buy as those who do. Everybody
should see the Diamond Necklace, as it IS
certainly a superb collection of brilliant
gems. Our holiday display is now arranged
for inspection. Respectfully,
M. STERNBERG,

A SERIES OF MlSHAPS.
The Chattahoochee Has a Hard Time
of it Getting to Sea.

The Chattahoochee Has a Hard Time
Of it Getting to Sea.
The steamship Chattahoochee sailed yes
terday afternoon at 5 o'clock. As she was
passing down the river she struck the
ground just this side of the Garden bank.
The tide caused her - swing around and
her stern struck the after quarter of the
bark Levanter, which is moored at Tag
CARTS wharf, but did very little damage, if
any, to the bark The steamer finally
worked off, and in backing out was com
PEELED to let go her anchor. A schooner and
pilot boat being anchored in the stream, in
the steamers way, her anchor dragged and
she struck Dixon 81 Murphy's wharf
At this juncture the tug Forest
City came to her assistance, and
after working at her over an hour sue
ceeded in getting her out into the stream.
After the tug let go of the steamer she
swung in toward the wharf, and her sides
struck the starboard wheelhouse of the
steamer ST. Nicholas, smashing in the wood
work. The Chattahoochee then proceeded
on down the river but probably anchored
in the blight, as she had lost so much time
with her series of mishaps and drawing 1715
feet of water she more than likely lost the
advantage of the tide.

A Young Teuton Plucked of His
Clothes and a Gold Watch.
Between two and three o'clock yesterday
morning the night clerk at the Screven
House was startled by the cry "Helpr'
'Helpm coming from the work room in
the rear of Levy's tailoring estab-
lishment. Armed with revolver
and accompanied by two stout porters the
night clerk climbed up to the top of a par
titlon separating the hotel washroom
from the tailor shop. The cries
for help continued. and thoughts
of a bloody tragedy fitted through the
night clerks brain as he mounted
a step-ladder and nerved himself to look
upon the scene. He got to the top of the
partition and peered over. On the floor lay
half-dressed young Teuton shouting at the
top of his lungs for help.
Nv hats the matter, what's the matter!"
asked the pight clerk.
Och, mein Colt, mein Colt, they hat
robt me, they hat robt me. Mein watch list
gone Mein clos ist gone. Och mein Colt,
mein Gott Vat shall do?n
Some of the workmen employed in Levy's
establishment sleep in the work-room.
They had left the door open and some of the
habitues of Congress street lane had helped
themselves to the young tailor's clothes and
his gold watch. Before they had quite
stripped him he woke up and began yelling
for help. The robbers dropped the clothes
as they went out of the door, but they got
away with the watch
